A mod top A12!!
 
Holy smokes. A mod top A12! That's some color combo. Plus the sunroof. Talk about rare. A shame he has to sell it. Wish the pics were better.

What's the trim tag code for a mod top?

Wonder if there were any factory ordered A12s with a mod top. We need some mod top pics. lol.

I was just told that the tag, build sheet, story is B.S so proceed with caution.

Ah man. What a shame.

I'm guessing there were zero A12 mod tops. The A12 Registry would probably have all of this information. Guess people should worry about the A12 aspect of it as well.

Here's a discussion on it in the A12 Registry forums.

Yes and no.

There were no Mod Top Road Runners. However, it was possible to order a Super Bee with the floral vinyl top, but these were not marketed as Mod Tops and don't carry any badges signifying this. I believe one A12 Bee is known to exist with this top, but can't say for sure. Certainly there's one Bee I've seen with this top, which is the same top the Road Runner in the auction has. Seller didn't claim it was an A12 car, but he claimed it was a Mod Top sunroof car, and both are BS.

Re: A mod top A12!!--isn't....
 
I'd like to see that. Someone should start a mod top or other crazy MOPAR top post. I'd love to see more of all makes & models that still exist.

This one is pretty impressive.

I believe there's a black 'Cuda with a 440 or Hemi with a Mod Top that's being restored too . . . or maybe that's the same car? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

If you read his ad he clearly states that he always wanted a A12 car so he made it into one.

bashton 04-07-2009 04:04 AM

Re: A mod top A12!!--isn't....
 
I was taken in by this one too. The N code immediately showed that it was never an A12 car, and if you read the entire description, the seller certainly does a great job of tap-dancing around what it really is.

Factory Sunroof in a 69 Runner? I think not.

Mod Top? Maybe, but it isn't this one.

I am the first to "never say never" when it comes to Mopars, but in this case, the car is a cool replica of what probably never was.

Re: A mod top A12!!--isn't....
 
Wow, what a misleading description!
"The original owner was determined to order the car his way. It started with a Road Runner Post with a extremely rare Mod Top roof. Then the next thing was again the extremely Rare Factory Sunroof that has been serviced and works perfect like it was new. The car is F5 Lime Light Metallic with Black interior."

My neighbor had a 69 B-5 Blue satellite with the Mod top. Strange for sure

This 2 tone 69 1/2 Bee is well know in the Twin Cities area and is 100% correct.

Whttps://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gifW...misleading is almost an understatement?!

What was that old pic of a '67 Camaro we were looking at here last year w/ the Mod style top...some show car piece or aftermarket/dealer thing?https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif.

Even though their Mopar didn't have one, the whole Mod thing always gets me thinking of the Mod-Squad's Peggy Lipton...mmmmmm!https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/drool.gif.

Daytona ModTop was a dealer add-on from what I've read.

Unbelievable! What's the history on the car? I think a "member's rides" story is in order.

And who's magical garage/showcase is that? Charley, is that yours? Looks pretty awesome. That MOPAR memorabilia is really fantastic. They always had the best ad campaigns, imho.

You can call it fugly all you want, but it's total drool material for me!

Do you think it comes with a matching blender?

Re: A mod top A12!!--isn't....
 
There is a old thread on this site where I posted a ton of pics of Steven's Mopar Memorabilia collection. It is by far the best collection there is. Even Mopar doesn't have as much cool stuff. Steven spent years scouring the country finding stuff. We are talking about crawling around in dealership attics etc. He was saving this stuff when others were throwing it out. If you ever set foot in the collection it will bring tear to your eyes to see what he has accomplished. I wish I could find the old thread.

The really amazing thing that you don't think about is all the stuff that is not Neon and mainly posters etc. That is the stuff that degrades , tears, wrinkles, gets thrown away etc. That is the really rare stuff.
